Fearless Foodies

Equip the next generation with the building blocks for a healthy life.

Your baby is getting bigger everyday. You can already see elements of the amazing little person he is going to be – that cheeky smile he gets when you say his name. Or the way she snuggles into you when you first pick her up in the morning.

Before you know it this gorgeous little baby will turn into a wild, energetic toddler (and then they just keep getting bigger!).

Providing your child with the right nutrients when they are young is key to helping them grow into healthy, happy little humans.

Fearless Foodies is an 8-week program designed to help you introduce your baby to solid food and set the foundation for a healthy life.

As a new parent, you’re figuring out everything as you go. Sure, you can get plenty of tips from friends and family who’ve had babies (and even those who haven’t!).

But let’s face it – there’s no black and white when it comes to this baby stuff. Only shades of grey.

Fearless Foodies is a unique program that combines expert research, real-life tips and ongoing support to give you the tools you need to confidently introduce your baby to solid food.

When Should I Start My Baby on Solids?

Knowing when to first feed baby solids can be stressful for many parents.

There’s so much conflicting information on what you should and shouldn’t feed your baby, and when.

You want to protect your child, while also ensuring that they can eat a varied and balanced diet.

Fearless Foodies 8 week program includes a schedule for introducing solid foods to your baby, along with helpful information on how, when and why to introduce common allergens into your child’s diet.

What Solids Do I Start My Baby On?

You know the saying ‘you are what you eat’? Well, research shows that a healthy gut is essential to building a healthy body. And as babies go through huge developmental stages in the first few years, you want to make sure they are getting all the right nutrients for a happy body.

Not sugary snacks. Not full-of-junk-doesn’t-even-look-like-real-food mush.

Healthy, nutrient-rich and delicious meals.

Fearless Foodies will give you confidence to make solid food your baby’s body will love – plus their taste buds too (hey, you’ll probably even want to sneak a taste).

About Carrie

I’m Dr Carrie Rigoni. A chiropractor for children with additional nutrition training. As a result of my five-year chiropractic degree, and seven years of specific study and research into children’s health and nutrition, I’ve developed knowledge of not just chiropractic, but also a holistic view of health and strong diagnostic skills that ensure patients are given the best care.

From my clinic in Melbourne, I work with parents to help them raise happy, healthy children by providing chiropractic services and evidence-based advice covering aspects of nutrition, wellness and lifestyle factors.

I’ve made it my mission to share my wealth of research and experience as widely as possible through a series of programs that will be made available online to anyone in the world.

Fearless Foodies brings together everything I have researched and learned about childhood nutrition and raising healthy, happy kids into a complete program. I’m so pleased to finally be able to share this with families everywhere.

This is a complete, 8-week program unlike any other available online. I was getting so many questions from parents about how to start their baby on solid foods, so I decided to put everything I’ve learned about nutrition and babies into this program.

This program combines expert advice with a price that’s manageable for families. Going beyond simple recipes and baby food tips, you get access to years of research into child’s health, as well as the option of one-on-one support with me during the program.

………..

At the end of the program you will understand WHY your baby’s first foods are so important.

Frequently Asked Questions

I get that you may have some questions about the course and what’s involved. If you don’t see your question covered here, please feel free to email me here {create link for email contact box}.

…..

How will I know if my baby is ready to start solid food?

There are a number of signs to look for to know if your baby is ready to start solid food, although it usually happens between 4 to 6 months. When you first sign up you get access to my quick-start guide on the things to look for. As soon as your baby looks ready, you’ll have the program to guide you.

…..

I’ve seen a number of baby food cookbooks. Is this the same thing?

Fearless Foodies goes into a lot more detail than could be provided in a single book.

It is designed to give you in-depth knowledge around infant nutrition. I don’t just give you recipes. I cover the why behind each step, so you can be sure that you’re doing the best you can for your baby.

You’ll also learn about the benefits of each food being introduced, allergies and other responses to look for and a shopping guide. Plus you’ll be added to a private Facebook group and get one-on-one email support to ask questions and seek guidance.

…..

I’m not great in the kitchen. Are the recipes super-complicated?

I believe that anyone can provide nutritious, healthy food for their baby once they’ve been shown how. However, I as a working mum myself, I also know how little time there is in the day to get everything done and still spend time enjoying the gift that is your baby. So any recipe suggestions are quick and easy to prepare.

Keep in mind, this program is more about providing you with the knowledge and confidence to introduce a variety of foods to your baby – without following a cookie cutter recipe guideline. It is about giving you the tools to influence your baby’s present and future health with their nutrition.

…..

I know you advocate organic and whole food, but I’m worried about the cost of buying these things.

I completely understand your concerns. Organic food can be a lot more expensive than shopping at your supermarket. However, I truly believe that the benefits gained from eating whole, chemically-free food truly outweighs the cost – over time you’ll likely have less need for expensive doctors appointments and medication.

The program covers which foods are best bought organic, and which foods are safer to buy conventional, as well as how to wash your foods before eating to reduce pesticide exposure, so you can make the best choice for your family and budget.

And because the recipes are made from scratch you’ll probably find yourself saving money compared to buying pre-packaged baby food from the supermarket.

…..

My family are vegetarian/vegan/gluten free/paleo – do you include these options?

Fearless Foodies is not a recipe book. Fearless Foodies is a program which gives you the freedom to follow whichever dietary philosophy works for you and your family. It is about educating and empowering you to make confident nutritional choices for your baby, rather than telling you exactly what to eat.

Although a number of the suggested recipes do not contain meat, not all the recipes are vegetarian or vegan. All the recipes are gluten free, while most of the recipes are paleo (or can be adapted to a paleo diet). You may choose to substitute those meals for other recipes.

…..

What if I need help or have any questions throughout the program?

After you sign up, you’ll get access to a private Facebook group where you can hang out with other participants and share information and get support. I’ll also be holding regular ‘office hours’ where you can ask me any questions you have about introducing your baby to solid food, any reactions to their diet (good and bad) and general kid’s wellness stuff. I can’t wait for everyone to get in there are start sharing stories!

You will also have the option of additional support from me, if you feel you require it. There will be limited spaces for additional support as I like to ensure I give you the time and energy you deserve. (I strongly recommend additional support if you have an allergy-prone child, or a strong family history of food allergies).

…..

What if the program isn’t what I was looking for? Do you offer a money-back guarantee?

I’ve designed the program based on years of experience as a children’s chiropractor and wellness advocate. However, if after the first week you aren’t happy with what’s included, just let me know and I’ll refund your money.
